Looks like this helped. I used my old Win98-Installation to make a scan, 
and now the Epson Scanner is working with FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE. Strange.

This definitively belongs to some sort of FAQ or to 'man sane-plustek'.

Do you also get a 'Speicherschutzverletzung' if doing a Preview-Scan with
xsane (signal 11)? Or is it just me (again).
